Produktbeschreibung

Die Grundlagen der Technologie der Explosivstoffe - von Chemie und Thermodynamik bis zur Beschreibung von Detonationsprozessen, Druckwellen, Zündung und Scaling - für fortgeschrittene Studenten, Ingenieure und Naturwissenschaftler. Anhand zahlreicher Beispiele, Diagramme und Abbildungen lernen Sie, Probleme der Praxis zu analysieren und zu lösen. Mit einer umfangreichen Datensammlung zu Explosivstoffen und ausführlichen Gerätebeschreibungen!,This graduate text, and Cooper's companion introductory text ('Introduction to the Technology of Explosives'), serve the same markets as the successful explosives reference by Meyer, now in its 4th edition. VCH also published the International Journal of Propellants, Explosives, and Pyrotechnics. The resulting package would give VCH the major presence in the field. This text presents the basic technologies used in the engineering of explosives and explosive systems, i.e., chemistry, burning, detonation, shock waves, initiation theories, scaling. The book is written for upper-division undergraduate or graduate-level scientists and engineers, and assumes a good grasp of basic physics, chemistry, mechanics and mathematic through calculus. It is based on lecture notes used for graduate courses at the Dept. of Energy Laboratories, and could serve as a core text for a course at schools of mining or military engineering. The intent of the book is to provide the engineer or scientist in the field with an understanding of the phenomena involved and the engineering tools needed to solve/ design/ analyze a broad range of real problems.
